All ready for industry
IF you take a step back and look at human history, it becomes clear that business has been in the forefront of our society from the earliest days.
Some might even say that the continually dynamic exchange of goods is the cornerstone of our development into massive civilisations and the emergence of modern society and business shows no signs of fading. In fact, business is a catalyst for innovation.
The Faculty of Business, Hospitality and Humanities at Nilai University offers programmes from diploma to doctorate levels, and provides in business-related areas including Accounting, Finance, Management, Marketing, Human Resources Management, and a wide range of Hospitality disciplines including Hotel Management and Culinary Arts.
The Faculty of Business, Hospitality and Humanities at Nilai University is led by an experienced dean, Prof Sivakumar Velayutham.

In addition to this, the university puts a lot of emphasis on its graduates to be competent in communication and interpersonal skills.
All students of Nilai University are offered a range of university courses that are sometimes taught by experts outside the university, which include outward bound, golf, theatre and drama.
These courses ensure that our graduates are not only technically competent but also can work in different environments. The university also focuses on the holistic development of its graduates.
The university prepares its students on the importance of thinking out of the box in all of its coursework assignments and extracurricular activities. Students will be trained to get alternative answers to business-related problems.
